GCP update V2

Hi,

I was wondering when the V2 update will be available and how this can be purchased/downloaded and /or installed. I'm also curious what features will be in it. I'm still hoping for the option of having ia-switches in 10-preset-mode....

Cheers

Marco

The update is not yet available. Watch the Announcements tab for any breaking news.

The update will be in the form of an EProm chip that you can install yourself. We include installation instructions and a new manual for this type of update.

In order to have Instant Access buttons while in 10 Presets per Bank Mode you will need more buttons... this will be achieved with a second Ground Control Pro set to the new IA Mode. IA Mode will turn this second Ground Control Pro into an all Instant Access controller with two banks of 12 Instant Access buttons.

I hope that helps!

So, in essence this second GCP will allow you to instantly control what's plugged into a second, third and fourth GCX (as an example)?

i.e.
First bank: instant access to a second GCX plus the first four loops of a third GCX
Second bank: last four loops of a third GCX plus a fourth GCX

am I right?

It's a shame that the firmware update will not allow for a total of 8 presets - having 8 IA buttons and 4 more presets that work with the first GCP would be very useful. Is that just a hardware limitation with the unit that no firmware could possibly fix?

I also miss the possibility to have 8 presets and 4 IA buttons. Or 10 presets and 2 IA buttons (the not needed data buttons).

I think, this can't be because of a hardware limitation.

Please take account of the users (in this forum) who asked for this feature. For me, it's a very important feature.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you!

Regards
Ralf

I was given the impression by Voodoo customer support in January to not expect the update any time soon (or at all). His response to what I should do with the 2 GCP's I bought a year ago specifically because of the update announcement:

I'd definitely use them as they are.

I've been away for a while, but somehow I'll always come back.
Anyone heard any news about the V2 update, yet?

I'd also like to know when/if it will be available, and what it will include. The ability to send multiple CCs with a single IA is high on my "must have" list. I'd hate to have to go elsewhere to get what I need.

OTOH, I'm pretty sure the folks at Voodoo Lab can see what's happening out there - Liquid Foot and MFC gaining ground because of their power and configurability. Obviously Voodoo can't offer the same power at the lower price of the GCP, but they can offer some of it; the GCP will have to "up" its game a bit to stay a contender.

Bump - Just to let Voodoo know we're still waiting....

This would be really great if it happens, just sayin'. Having a full GCP with all instant access buttons would send me over the Edge. Any news on the update?

I too would love to have an update for the GCP with some other options for button configuration. A new update would be Awesome! Any news John?
